does anyone have a picture of a female that is large enough to breed. i have not been able to get a scale yet. i need a picture set to scale with something in the picture i can compare the female to, like a dollar bill or something. thanks

I like the looks of her a lot. A very "natural" looking leo.

Would be interesting to see an albino with a similar pattern.

She is at 50 but I am waiting a few more months so I don't stunt her.

Awesome gecko you have there, I was wondering what you mean by you don't want to "stunt" her? Does that mean breeding stunts female growth? Thanks.

She is over a year old but I think she will probably put on at least another 20 grams and possible an inch or inch and half in length before she is finished growing. If I was to breed her now its possible that she might not reach her full potential. Breeding can take alot out of a female so you need to approach it carefully. Many think that once a leopard is over 45 grams its safe to breed. It being safe and it being to the benefit of the animal are two different things. With this particular female I just want to make sure she is as large as she is going to be before I breed her. Hope this answered your question.

when you get your photos devoloped make sure you choose to get the kodak CD picture thingy. Then you just plop your cd into your computer upload the pics to your hard drive and upload them to where you want to have them.
